Any of you guys been there? How was it? Is there a limit in terms of cars allowed on the track so it doesn't get too busy?

Where do you track your car in the UK?

Love spa. I'd also do a ring trip at the same time. I did both with circuit days. It's my favourite place EVER ! I'm going more often next year smile

For me it's the Best European circuit followed by Brands GP. But beware, there are several very high committment corners on both circuits.

Fun, fun, fun...

Generally, all the main circuits have a limit to how many cars are allowed on circuit at any one time. i.e. a number that they deem to be safe. The circuit marshalls are in control of that rather than the track day organizer. Once that number has been reached it's one off, one on. The length of any queue will be dependent on how many cars the organizer has booked on the day. Choose a good organizer and there will rarely be any queuing.

Anywhere that'll have us! Having been mucked about with two different track day organisers this year, my list of preferred TDOs is getting shorter. I aimed to do 10 this year and I managed 11, so I'm chuffed with that. Oh and I got my race license too.
